NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — It's the end of an era for a Trousdale County landmark. At around 6:30 a.m., Tennessee Valley Authority will demolish the Hartsville cooling tower.
The tower was built in the 70s and was originally part of a planned nuclear power site that never went online Since then, it has become a recognizable feature of that community.
It will take all of eight seconds to bring the tower down. A large crowd is expected and there will be a big public viewing area.

This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams. The Vanderbilt football team's success has stolen the spotlight - what I love about Steve Layman's story is he reveals the individual hardships it took to get there. As Clark Lea says, "we all have scuff marks." This team proves perseverance pays off!
